Volunteer searcher Jarrod Boys found human remains near Philosopher Falls, prompting renewed police and forensic efforts to identify if they belong to missing backpacker Celine Cremer.
- On Wednesday, volunteer Jarrod Boys discovered human remains near Philosopher Falls during a privately organised search, prompting police to launch a fresh search and attend the scene.
- Celine Cremer, a 31-year-old Belgian backpacker, vanished after visiting Philosopher Falls on June 17, 2023, and was reported missing on June 26, 2023; last month, privately organised volunteer searches recovered her phone, reigniting efforts.
- Commander Nathan Johnston said the discovery included a jawbone, bra, thermal top, and polar fleece jacket believed to be hers, while a pathologist confirmed the remains are human pending tests by Forensic Science Services Tasmania.
- On Friday, six experts will be flown into the site to support line-search operations along a 400m to 500m Arthur River section, with dental comparisons and DNA testing expected in about 3 weeks.
